WEALTH OF SEA CAPTAINS.
They Have Other Sources of Incom
Besides Their SALARY.

They Have Other Sources of Income
Besides Their Salary.
1t is often a source of wonder how so many
ship captains amass large fortunes, build
pa}atial residences and settle down after a
life of hardship and exposure, as the seers and
prophets of their native villages. To be sure,
since the days of high freights and vast profits
of the East India trade, when a vessel fire.
quently paid for herself in one voyage, fewer
opportunities are afforded to owners and
captains to accumulate fortunes with the
rapidity of former days.
Still there are methods by which the crafty
commander of the ship is enabled to pick up
a few stray dollars. The law provides that
the captain of every ship shall provide ''slop
chest,' containing boots, oilskins, socks,
underclothing, ETC., to be sold to the sailors,
including goodly supply of tobacco. The
law also provides that the profits of the cap
tain from the sales shall be limited to ten per
cent. This, however, IS rarely enforced, and
the captain dissoseS of tobacco that costs
thirty cents per pound for seventy-fve cents,
81, and often S1.50 The other contents of
the slop chest are also doled out to the sailors,
with whom it is a case of Hobson's choice, at
enormous profits to the captains pocket.
Captains, also, have peculiar fondness for
commissions, and when lying at a port the
butcher, the ship chandler and the bumboat
man all willingly agree to pay over certain
percentage of the money received from the
ship for the sake of obtaining the trade.
Money has to be hired, too, to meet the bills,
and here, too, the inevitable commission
jingles in the pocket Of the master of the
ship, at sea an autocrat, on shore an object of
adulation. Vessels in distress are often
obliged to hire large sums of money to meet
the expenses of repairing, and part of the in
terest paid and the large bonuses of the ad-
vances find their way into the ever open
pocket of the crafty mariner.
As an illustration, tie writer was ON board
a ship, the second mate of which was to DO
discharged at foreign port. The captain,
in making up the accounts ready to be sub
mitted to the consul, found that he had been
charging the mate seventy cents per pound
for tobacco. 'Those fellows on shore will
get all his money, anyhow" said he "and 1
reckon might as well have part of it." Ac-
cordingly tobacco was entered in the bill 81
per pound, and the other items of the account
were increased in like proportion. From this
short account it will be seen that captains
still have opportunities to make a little
money con the outside" The amounts made
by some by smuggling soon enable them to
retire from the sea and live life of ease
